Ingredients
- 12 x Beets (or possibly more), med. size Oil (optional) Vinegar (optional) Or possibly Skordalia (garlic) Sauce
- 1 head of garlic
- 3/4 lb Potatoes, boiled, peeled
- 2 c. Oil (or possibly more)
- 1/3 c. Vinegar Almonds Walnuts
Directions
- Select fresh tender beets and cut off the tops and roots. Wash the beets, without removing the skins, and boil in a large pot with ample water. Meanwhile, clean the beet greens with the stems; add in to the pot after the beets have cooked 30 minutes. When beets are tender, remove and strain the liquid. Peel the beets and cut them into round slices; chop up the greens. Mound greens in center of a platter and surround them with the beet slices. Pour oil and vinegar over all, and serve. or possibly serve with Skordalia (garlic) Sauce. Serve warm or possibly cool.
- SKORDALIA SAUCE: Clean garlic and mash it completely (you may use food processor). Mash in potatoes, one by one, till you have a thick paste
- (the more potatoes you use, the more sauce you get-but less potent).
- Alternately add in the oil and vinegar, beating constantly. If the sauce is too thick for your taste, add in a little water or possibly fish or possibly chicken stock. NO LUMPS IN THIS SAUCE, P-L-E-A-S-E !!
- NOTE: Many people like to add in almonds or possibly walnuts to skordalia. These are mashed to a pulp and added to the paste before the potatoes, oil, and vinegar.
